Why Attend

“Targeted protein degradation promises to be the greatest innovation in small molecule drug discovery in the new millennium.” - Manfred Koegl, Lab Head Oncology Research, Boehringer Ingelheim

With capital investment coming in fast, industry is ready to commercialise the therapeutic potential of PROTACs and molecular glues to build safe, effective targeted protein degradation products. As Arvinas conducts the groundbreaking first PROTAC clinical trials this year, it could be only be a matter of time before PROTACs and molecular glues enter the market.

The European Protein Degradation Congress will bring together leading industry players within big pharma and biotech along with expert academics in the ubiquitin space - providing an open forum and facilitate the sharing of in vitro and in vivo data, as well as build a deeper mechanistic understanding of the ubiquitin pathways and techniques to make the ‘undruggable’ druggable.

Expect to hear strategies to overcome the structural biology, pharmacology and chemistry obstacles associated with the discovery and development of these bi-functional and single entity molecules.

I am a Senior Member and Professor at the Moffitt Cancer Center & Research Institute, Tampa, FL. As a member of the Immunology Program, I have made several leading observations on immune deregulations in the setting of bone marrow failure, hematological malignancies, and solid tumors. In addition to collaborations with physician scientist to assist with investigator-initiated clinical trials, I have conducted research studies with collaborators focused on Cancer Prevention and Control to uncover the epidemiology of cancer. My research focuses on drug discovery for the design of new therapeutics, and pathology to improve diagnostic testing for personalized treatment matching. My laboratory research efforts are focused on understanding how to potentiate anti-tumor cytotoxic T cells that have the potential to eliminate tumors. Specifically, I have been evaluating the ability of a class of immunomodulatory drugs (IMiDs) to activate anti-tumor cytotoxic T cells in patients with myelodysplastic syndromes and other cancers. This research as led to the discovery that cereblon (an E3-ubiquitin ligase substrate receptor) is involved in blocking anti-tumor T cell activation. The ultimate goal is to realize the potential of immunotherapy for patients with hematologic malignancies and other forms of cancer.

Success in the lab builds excitement, but always leads to more questions. I feel that research it is a never-ending quest for truth. I first received my Doctorate in Pharmacy before obtaining a PhD. I think this stimulated my interest in drug discovery research. After 25 tireless years of research in the field of immunology, I think we are finally hitting our stride.

Claudio Joazeiro

ZMBH Research Group Leader

University of Heidelberg

Broadly we are interested in the E3 ubiquitin ligases –their biological functions, mechanism of action, and roles in disease. For the past few years, we have focused on the problem of how cells know when its proteins are aberrant or damaged, and then decide on ways to either correct or eliminate them. Protein quality control is critical to ensure proteome integrity and cellular fitness; further underscoring its relevance, defective protein quality control is a hallmark of neurodegenerative diseases.

For the past few years, we have focused on the problem of how cells know when its proteins are aberrant or damaged, and then decide on ways to either correct or eliminate them. Protein quality control is critical to ensure proteome integrity and cellular fitness; further underscoring its relevance, defective protein quality control is a hallmark of neurodegenerative diseases.

In eukaryotic organisms, key factors conferring specificity to protein quality control are molecular chaperones and E3 ligases. We have recently discovered a novel protein quality control mechanism mediated by an E3 ligase, Listerin/Ltn1, and which takes place on ribosomes. We now know that Listerin functions as a subunit of the Ribosome-Associated Quality Control (RQC) complex, which is conserved from yeast to humans. Of relevance, Listerin mutation causes motor neuron degeneration in mice.

We employ diverse model systems and approaches to elucidate how RQC-mediated quality control occurs at the cellular and molecular levels, including biochemistry, yeast genetics, cell biology, mouse models of neurodegeneration, and structural biology. We also analyze patients’ genomes to identify mutations that affect protein quality control; these studies are leading to insights onto the molecular basis of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) and other neurodegenerative diseases, and to potential therapeutic targets.

In addition to the projects on Listerin, we have been working to elucidate the functions and mechanisms of the mitochondria-anchored E3 ligase, MULAN/MUL1, and to develop small molecule inhibitors of E3 ligases that can be used as oncology therapeutics.

There, Dr. Margolis completed a doctoral thesis with Dr. Sally Kornbluth focusing on molecular mechanisms of DNA-responsive cell cycle checkpoints using the frog Xenopus egg extract system. Following completion of a Ph.D., in 2006 Dr. Margolis joined the laboratory of Dr. Michael Greenberg in the department of Neurobiology at Harvard University (Boston, Massachusetts). During a postdoctoral tenure with the guidance and support of Dr. Greenberg, Dr. Margolis focused his efforts on the molecular pathways that regulate excitatory synapse formation and investigating their relevance to the pathophysiology of the cognitive disorder Angelman Syndrome. In September 2011, Dr. Margolis joined the Department of Biological Chemistry at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine as an Assistant Professor. The vast majority of Dr. Margolis work is centered on understanding how molecular mechanisms that restrict synapses during development are reactivated in neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative disease. To this end, Dr. Margolis and his group use genetically engineered mouse models of disease and a multidisciplinary approach that combines aspect of molecular biology, biochemistry and in vivo synapse imaging in order to develop hypothesis about the underlying cause of synapse degeneration and cognitive decline. They then use genetic rescue or stereotactic approaches to target distinct pathways followed by a wide range of behavioral tasks to assay cognitive function and tests their hypotheses. More recently, Dr. Margolis has developed a new direction focused on cellular protein homeostasis mechanisms related to protein degradation and their impact on changes in the function and physiology of the nervous system. Using a wide range of classic biochemical purification approaches, Dr. Margolis and his team have identified novel proteasome mediated pathways in the nervous system and are just beginning to understand their relevance to health and disease.

In 2018, she won the GlaxoSmithKline Award from the Biochemical Society.

Anne has made seminal contributions to our current understanding of protein quality control mechanisms in cells, which represent the cellular defence systems against potentially harmful proteins. She was one of the pioneer in the discovery of mammalian unfolded protein response and more recently discovered the pathways by which cells maintain proteasome homeostasis.

She has also identified mechanisms underlying the deposition of misfolded proteins in neurodegenerative diseases and contributed to a dogmatic shift in this field with the discovery that mutant SOD1 aggregates propagate indefinitely just like prions.

With the knowledge acquired on protein quality control systems, Anne identified strategies to boost their function and is currently exploiting them for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases. One of the strategy consists in selective inhibition of a phosphatase, an important advance because phosphatases were thought to be undruggable.
